I don't know how or why, but I missed it. Chris warned about it way ahead of time, and I still missed it.

So what is "it"? "It" is the blacklist relays.ordb.org, and it was announced a long time ago, that they were closing down. So some e-mails didn't get to my server. Since I am using a private whitelist, it wasn't immediately obvious that e-mail was bouncing, since some e-mails got through.

As Chris puts it:

This is simply a reminder to lazy or incompetent administrators to manage their use of DNSBLs actively. You can't just define once a list of DNSBL zones you want to use for email blocking and then leave it unmaintained.

Now, does this make me lazy or incompetent? Lazy, I think.

Anyway, now it's fixed, and e-mail is flowing as it should again. If anyone has been sending e-mail to me during the last couple of days, and got a bounce message back, please try again.

...when Lotusphere is about to begin, and I won't go this year either. All I can do is read about all the action, and try to keep up with my list of blogs. I wish I was in Florida right about now...

There's a new (at least for me) site up, which is an aggregator of a lot of Lotus community bloggers. It is called Planet Lotus. In addition to being an aggregator, it also has a filter system, so that it tries to filter out anything that isn't really about Lotus from the blogs. The site is currently tracking 131 blogs, and was created by Yancy Lent.

Let's not forget about the DominoBlogs.com site as well.

As the recent update 2.0.0.10 of the Mozilla Firefox web browser is automatically updated to user's computers, a problem with DWA (iNotes) starts to occur. People can no longer send e-mail from DWA, or attach files using DWA.

The problem seems to be that a security fix in Firefox created this behaviour, and it is not something that Mozilla intends to fix. It is considered a feature, and not a bug. Domino will send a .jar file with the wrong MIME type (application/octet-stream which shoould be application/java-archive). IBM has been notified of the problem, and is hopefully woking on a long term fix. That will probably take time, though, so what can we do in the meantime?

We can fix it ourselves!

It's actually quite easy to fix the problem, but for those of you that has plenty of Domino servers, it will still take some time. Here's what you do:

1. Locate the file httpd (could also be named httpd.cnf, if I understand it correctly) in the Domino data directory.
2. Add the line "AddType .jar application/java-archive # Java Archive" where you feel is appropriate.
3. Save the file.
4. Restart the server. It might be enough to "tell http quit" and "load http" on the console, but I haven't tried this.
5. Tell any Firefox user to clear the cache before using DWA (iNotes).
